Re-canvased, 19th century frame: 73x61 cm
The can-can ,also spelled cancan as in the original French, is a high-energy, physically demanding dance that became a popular music-hall dance in the 1840s, continuing in popularity in French cabaret to this day.
Originally danced by couples, it is now traditionally associated with a chorus line of female dancers.
The main features of the dance are the vigorous manipulation of skirts and petticoats, along with high kicks, splits, and cartwheels.
